I guess anything is possible. Is the computer you use to access this site shared? If so, that could be a reason why they can get into your username. Your name and password might be saved on the computer. What you should do everytime you log off is go to "internet options" and "delete cookies", "clear history", and "delete files" (even offline content). And make sure that when it asks to save yoru password and usename you click no. I had someone hack into my icq about 4 years ago with a trojen and started talking to all my friends. They thought "I" was on crack they way "I" was talking to them. Was quite freaky how someone could do that, but the best way to prevent against that is to (a) have a firewall (b) have an anti-virus software, and (c) perform regular spyware and trojan hunting scans. (Trojan hunter - www.misec.net/. Ad Aware for spyware ( www.lavasoft.com/). Hope that helps. |

ahhh you guys are so nice.
Thank you bunches.
but no, this is MY computer at home so thats why i was so weirded out when I finally got on here to use this name to see that "I" had been making posts and "I" had been talking about Amelia, so it was like, damn i hope they dont read that and think it was me.
And I have all that stuff for my computer so i dont know how they could get in around it, so I think it was one of my friends.......its just scary.
But then again, I don't even know about Nathan's beard status. Mmm. Maybe the truth will surface soon.

Amelia is Matt's girlfriend?
I guess it was one of yoru friends. Change your password. Make it something that no one could guess, maybe something in another language.

How odd.
Yes I don't know about the hacking thing but if you do share your computer someone might have gone on, yes. My sister did that to me a few times without me knowing it until my friends started talking about stuff that I had no idea about.

Certainly it was possible on the last version of proboards, Miss Gnomesnatcha had her account hacked and used maliciously. I would have thought the recent upgrade would have improved security. However the most likely posibility is that it is one of your friends who has worked out your password or if you havent changed your password from the original issued on registration, it is very easy to find in your cookies if anyone else has accsess to your computer.

once, somebody hacked into my email and sent my swedish friends really weird emails (but they werent so weird that my friends doubted they were from me.... they just figured i'd changed!).... but the strange thing was that when they were sent i was living in iceland but the emails were in swedish! so nobody here could have sent them, cause nobody i know knows swedish!
things like this freak me out.
